Gil Thorp by Henry Barajas and Rod Whigham for February 26, 2014

I wonder if Tip Nunn is available.

Gil meant to say, “Except they had it in the HALLWAY.”

If Kaz and Gil wear their pants any lower, they’ll get called into the principal’s office.

Looks like the Milford AD gave the coaching staff Christmas gifts from Wristwatches R Us. Either that or Gil and Kaz can radio Dick Tracy next time there’s a fight in the HALLWAY.

Hmmmm, “those muggers from Central.” Is the Gil Thorp strip bordering on some stereotypes?

So it’s the middle of winter and Gil and Kaz are wearing short-sleeve shirts. The kids in P2 know better; they’re wearing jackets (or is the one on the right a hoodie?). Also, do they sell any other brand of shoes in Milford other than Adidas? Looks like another two pair in P2.

A perfect time for Big Bad John to join the team.

HaveMopWillTravel: Fearless Fosdick would be a better choice

Rule #1 of storytelling: Show, don’t tell.

We didn’t see the two boys fighting, and we didn’t see them getting suspending (and we don’t know for how long either).

And what is “Central?” A city? A county? Does anybody know?

The subliteracy of this strip continues…

Things are getting dangerous in Mopped Up Thorp. Where will this lead?

Were they suspended from school or just playing in the next game(s)? Seems to me that even pretend violence will get you kicked out of school these days.

In all reality, sitting on the beach in sunny Cancun at an all incclusivee hoping Milfords baseball season starts.
